GoFundMe Appeal

GoFundMe Appeal

GoFundMe appeal

We have recently started a GoFundMe appeal to raise $7500 AU (about $6600 US) to place  an extra order of ponchos, shawls, scarves, and belts. The funds will enable us to work with the weavers to ensure their unique, high-quality pieces are made using beautiful color combinations that will sell on the international market.  According to fair-trade principles these products will be purchased upfront, thus providing a needed injection of funds, without providing charity.  To read more information about our appeal, please click on the logo for GoFund Me below.
